Abstract
A reception device includes a number of reception paths and a decoder. The reception paths are sequenced and each reception path includes a calculation module embodied to deliver a combined confidence index and a combined data stream, from the confidence index and the equalized data stream for the current path, as well as, for the subsequent reception paths after the first path, from the combined confidence index and the combined data stream, for the preceding path. The decoder is embodied to only process the combined confidence index and the combined data stream, provided by the calculation module in the last path.
